Component 2: Methods of Sociological Enquiry (60 marks) • The focus is related to sociological enquiry • All questions are compulsory. • Question 1 consists of three short parts and the focus is on AO 1 and AO 2 • Question 2 is the research brief question which involves AO 1, AO 2 and AO 3, weighted to AO 3 • There are 1 hour and 45 minutes allocated • Question 1 and 2 are both worth 30 marks. • It is probably wise to allocate more time to the question 2 because it involves the higher level skills

Component 3: Social Inequality (120 marks) All questions are compulsory but there are options within them. • Section A – compulsory question related to Social Inequality • A compulsory question on providing evidence of inequality • Extended essay, choose one from two, these will probably test theoretical understanding. • Section B – optional topics (crime, health, politics and world) • A compulsory question relation to providing evidence of knowledge or explanation of a phenomenon • Extended essay, choose one from two, these will probably test theoretical understanding.

Component 3: Social Inequality (120 marks) The examination lasts 2 hours and 30 minutes.
